Perhaps it was due to the unexpected visitor of World Era Weekly or the visitor’s unknown intention that the gazes in the ward were alert.

The woman was tall and beautiful. She wore a smile, but her aura was arrogant and condescending.

She was glamorous, posh, and wise like a goddess!

The woman walked in and placed the flowers and fruit basket in her hand on the table, “Miss He, Mr. Huo, these are from Mrs. Xia. Please enjoy. She wishes Miss He a quick recovery. And please feel free to say it out if you need anything.”

Huo Zhanpeng and He Yuan both felt guilty. But Huo Zhanpeng soon gained his confidence. He took the flowers and fruit basket and threw them out of the ward.

“Get lost! Tell Mrs. Xia to quit pretending to be nice! She knows what she has done! We can’t do anything for now, but one day she’s going to pay for this!”

Huo Zhanpeng was furious. Flashes from the cameras were non-stop and so was the murmuring. Some even criticized, “She is just crying crocodile tears as a cat does for a dead rat!”

The woman raised her eyebrow, “Yep. A rat can never be a cat. Mr. Huo, it seems that your staff are not as good as you at acting. I have sent Mrs. Xia’s thoughts. Goodbye.”

Saying so, she turned around and was about to leave.

“Wait!” Huo Zhanpeng yelled and berated the woman, “You can’t walk away from this easily! Tianyu Entertainment Company will surely…”

“You’ll fight till the bitter end, right?” The woman turned around. Her smile widened but scared people. She was surrounded by security guards, but her aura was solemn, “Mr. Huo, World Era Weekly should say this to you. What you have done to Mr. Xia and World Era Weekly is known to the public. And the truth will come out in the end. You’d better find a way to cover up.”

Saying so, the woman left.

Huo Zhanpeng was astounded. It took him a minute to recover due to the shock or something else.

“Xia Ning, you’ve made a show with this woman, haven’t you?” Huo Zhanpeng shouted towards the camera, “You think you can play with people because you have someone backing you up, don’t you? I’ll tell you that I, Huo Zhanpeng, will be your nemesis!”

“Tsk, tsk…” Xia Ning frowned slightly while watching Huo Zhanpeng losing his calm from the screen. He was like the king of roaring. He could have won an Oscar for his “perfect” acting skills.

Xia Ning picked up her receiver and called the interview department, “Baoer, your girl is so good!”

“Ning, that woman is not from our department. I didn’t send her over, either.” Li Baoer was confused, “The girl I sent over said that the security guards stopped her before she was able to get into the ward. I was calling the superintendent of that hospital at that time when the woman entered. You don’t know her, Ning? But she was wearing the uniform of World Era Weekly!”

She had absolutely no idea.

Meanwhile, an email from the US headquarters came to her mailbox. Xia Ning clicked to read and her eyes lit up.

“Ha, now I know who she is.” Xia Ning thought highly of that woman. As expected, she and the one from the headquarters thought alike.

“Who’s she?”

“Be patient. Everyone working for World Era Weekly will know this soon. Bye.” Xia Ning hung up.

The woman who sent flowers and the fruit basket was the deputy editor appointed by the US headquarters, An Lingxi.

“How dare he! Who does he think he is!” Zhang Hai said, shaking his head. He must have no idea what Commander Yi was capable of so he dared to threaten Commander Yi’s wife.

Zhang Hai decided to send his condolences for now.

“Have you sent the documents on the website?” Yi Yunrui closed his laptop lid and asked with an emotionless face.

“Yes, boss. It’s all done. I sent it over at two fifty-nine.” Yi Yunrui had specified the time, neither too early nor too late.

“Did you delete it?”

“Yes, I did.” He deleted everything ten minutes after sending the documents, “Boss, I have contacted Director Tong and sent him the screenshot and half of the audio documents. I’ve also told him to stay put for now. When every prophecy is fulfilled, he will be famous for his great contributions.”

“Great job.” Yi Yunrui complimented. He pondered and then opened his laptop. His eyes were darkened when he saw Huo Zhanpeng continuing barking, “Zhang Hai, call Director Tong.”

“Yes, boss!”

Needless to say, there must be a heated discussion on Weibo. Xia Ning closed all the browser tabs. She hit her forehead with her palm and then sipped some milk.

Suddenly, she stood up as if she had thought of something important. But she did not see Jing Shu. So, she called Jing Shu, “Shu, Deputy Editor An is here. Please get in touch with her as soon as possible! Help her arrange her stay in City!”

“Yes, Sister Xia. I’m on it!”

Xia Ning had just ended her call when the door of the chief editor’s office was knocked three times in rhythm.

Xia Ning checked the security camera and was surprised. She adjusted her dress and said, “Come in.”

The door was opened. In came a tall woman who was breathtakingly pretty. It was An Lingxi.

“Nice to meet you, Chief Editor Xia.” An Lingxi gave her hand and walked towards Xia Ning outgoingly before Xia Ning could speak, “Let me introduce myself. I’m An Lingxi. The US headquarters appoints me to come here to assist you.”

Xia Ning was greatly relieved as An Lingxi was so outgoing. She didn’t expect that such a talent with excellent educational background could be so friendly.

“Nice to meet you too, Miss An. Please take a seat.”

An Lingxi sat down. Meanwhile, Xia Ning’s phone rang. It was from Jing Shu.

“Excuse me. I have to take this phone call.” Xia Ning picked up her phone. Before Jing Shu spoke, she said, “Come back, Shu. Deputy Editor An is already at the media building.”

“Ok. I’ll be right back!”

Xia Ning finished the call and looked embarrassed, “The headquarters told me that you would be here some days later, Miss An. I wasn’t expecting you to arrive this early. I’m so sorry that we didn’t give you a proper welcome.”

“No worries, Chief Editor Xia. The headquarters did ask me to arrive later. It’s just me who rushed to get here.”

And then Xia Ning and An Lingxi had some small talks.

Jing Shu was back shortly after. She gave a ninety-degree bow to An Lingxi to apologize sincerely once she entered the room.

“Miss An, I sent Shu to the hospital for an interview. She was just back.”

An Lingxi nodded, “I understand. I saw her in the ward. No need to apologize, sis. It’s just me being too early.”

Jing Shu smiled, “Deputy Editor, would you like some coffee or tea?”

An Lingxi looked at Xia Ning, “I’ve heard that Chief Editor Xia likes cappuccino. I’d like to have some of these. Thank you.”

“Miss An.” Xia Ning said after pondering, “Who told you to do that in the hospital?”

“Ah.” An Lingxi took out her notebook, “I’ve been following the reports these days, especially those on World Era Weekly and you, Chief Editor Xia. I have a rough idea of the stuff of Huo Zhanpeng and He Yuan. Huo Zhanpeng had a press conference at three o’clock. I just got off the plane and went to take a look. I saw our colleague being stopped by the security guards in front of the ward. I guessed it was your idea, Chief Editor Xia. So, I did some tricks to get in.”

Hearing what she said, Xia Ning was impressed by An Lingxi’s intelligence and smartness. No wonder she could make it to the administrative director of the US World Era Weekly on her own, despite being born in an ordinary family.

An outstanding woman indeed.

“Thank you, Miss An.”

“You are welcome, Chief Editor Xia.”

Meanwhile, Jing Shu had made the coffee and placed the cups in front of them.

“Miss An, you were the administration director of the headquarters. It’s kind of like a step down for you to be here working as a deputy editor. I’m just wondering what your expectation for your salary and your job is. Also, how long are you planning to stay here?”

Hearing this, An Lingxi laughed, “You are so generous, Chief Editor Xia. The US headquarters and the China branch are parts of the World Era Weekly. I decided to join World Era Weekly because I like its work ethic and values. Thus, wherever I am, whatever position I take, I’m happy and honored to contribute to World Era Weekly. And about working habits, I believe that the first step is hard. I’ve just arrived here. There’s bound to be some disagreements, which I hope you can understand, Chief Editor Xia. I think World Era Weekly will always pay me fairly in terms of my salary. I also believe my value deserves the salary.”

“Ah, also, I won’t be back in the US in a couple of years. I’ll probably stay longer if necessary. Please rest assured, Chief Editor Xia.”

Xia Ning saw confidence and determination in An Lingxi. As An Lingxi said, she deserved the high salary.

Smiling with satisfaction, Xia Ning stood up. She shook An Lingxi’s hand, “Deputy Editor An, I’m looking forward to our future collaboration!”

“Same here!”

Considering An Lingxi’s jet lag, Xia Ning asked Jing Shu to arrange for An Lingxi’s stay after some chit-chat. Xia Ning had a sinking feeling when she thought of Leng Weiwei who would meet An Lingxi when she returned to the company two days later.

The US headquarters did this out of good intention. Plus, she did need a capable assistant. But if Leng Weiwei had some issues, she would face the big brother Yi Yuntian.

Xia Ning looked out of the window. It was overcast. A storm seemed to be coming in no time.
